I like mine and don't have any problems with the finger release. Even if I curled mine it would still land on the slide not inside the trigger guard. It is not a great holster for concealed carry unless you are wearing a coat since it tends to stick out more than most holsters. I wear mine anytime I open carry and when working around the property, mainly because of the good retension.

I've CC'd with it in the winter/cold days wearing a larger coat. I've also used the SERPA on multiple deployments as a belt holster, drop-leg, and chest-mounted. Works as adveristed and never a problem.

Like any other piece of gear--you need to practice with it. IMO--you really have to work to put your finger on the trigger on the draw....so practice safely and carry often.

One final note: make sure you have the passive safety properly adjusted (cross-slot screw) when practicing.
